About This Novel
"The Cardinal of the Kremlin" is the sequel to "The Hunt for Red October" and another masterpiece in Tom Clancy's "Jack Ryan" series. The story takes place in the 1980s when the United States and the Soviet Union competed for the Star Wars program and high-tech weapons superiority. It revolves around the pursuit and appalling interrogation, as well as political conspiracy, intelligence espionage and other content. When the Soviet Union developed laser weapons capable of destroying space stations in orbit, the CIA specially used "Cardinals" to collect top-secret information on the "Bright Star" project. The "Cardinal" has been lurking in the Kremlin for more than thirty years and has never been suspected by the Soviet counterintelligence agency. Unexpectedly, this time he missed the mark and fell into the hands of the KGB. In order to implement the rescue plan, Jack Ryan went deep into the tiger's den alone and showed the trump card of the "Red October", forcing the chairman of the KGB to rescue the "Cardinal" and defect. At the same time, Afghan guerrillas with national hatred for the Soviet Union attacked the experimental base of the "Bright Star" project with the support of the United States; the KGB infiltrated the "Tea Clipper" project where the United States developed a laser weapon system and kidnapped the engineer responsible for the project... The CIA and the KGB launched a thrilling espionage war around laser weapons and missile defense systems. From the mountains of Afghanistan to the highlands of New Mexico, from Washington to Moscow, world peace lies in the hands of the Kremlin's "cardinals."
